We divide 816957 by 23
We want to divide 816957 by 23.

Going ahead to step 1:
23 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 0 from 8.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 81 / 23

Advancing to step 2:
81 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 12.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3.0
The remainder is 12 after subtracting 69 from 81.
Bring next digit (6) of the dividend behind the 12 and repeat the process: 126 / 23

Step 3:
When dividing 126 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 11.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 35.0
Subtracting 115 from 126 leaves us with 11.
Fetch the next digit (9) from the dividend, attach it to 11 and continue: 119 / 23

Going ahead to step 4:
When dividing 119 by 23, we get 5 with a remainder of 4.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 355.0
If we take 115 away from 119, we end up with 4.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 4, then carry on: 45 / 23

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 45 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 22.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3551.0
If we subtract 23 from 45, we get 22.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 22 and repeat the process: 227 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 227 by 23, we get 9 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 35519.0
Deduct 207 from 227 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
200 divided by 23 is 8 with a remainder of 16.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 35519.8
The remainder is 16 after subtracting 184 from 200.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
23 goes into 160 6 times with a remainder of 22.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 35519.86
If we take 138 away from 160, we end up with 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 220 by 23, we get 9 and a remainder of 13.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 35519.869
If we take 207 away from 220, we end up with 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
130 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 15.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 35519.8695
If we take 115 away from 130, we end up with 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
23 goes into 150 6 times with a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 35519.86956
If we take 138 away from 150, we end up with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
120 divided by 23 is 5 with a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 35519.869565
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 115 from 120.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
When dividing 50 by 23, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 35519.8695652
If we take 46 away from 50, we end up with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
When dividing 40 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 35519.86956521
If we subtract 23 from 40, we get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Our division results in 35519.86956521 with a remaining 1.7e-08.
